Diabetes has become a silent epidemic, affecting over 37 million people across the United States. At Patients Medical in New York City, we go beyond managing blood sugar levels. Our integrative approach combines conventional, holistic, and functional medicine to uncover the root causes of diabetes and help you reverse or manage it naturally.
We treat the whole person—focusing on lifestyle, diet, stress, and hormonal balance—not just the pancreas.
Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder in which the body either does not produce enough insulin or fails to respond properly to insulin. As a result, blood glucose levels rise, potentially damaging organs, blood vessels, nerves, and other vital systems over time.
Many people with early-stage diabetes don’t feel sick—but subtle signs may already be showing.
If you notice two or more of these signs, it’s time to get tested.
Functional medicine aims to uncover the root causes of chronic conditions. When it comes to diabetes, the underlying factors can be diverse:
To understand the drivers behind your diabetes, we utilize advanced lab tests, including:
Our custom IV treatments include B vitamins, magnesium, alpha-lipoic acid, and glutathione to support glucose metabolism and detoxification.
We integrate relaxation practices such as meditation, acupuncture, and adaptogenic herbs to balance stress hormones and promote adrenal health.
Our bioidentical hormone treatments and thyroid optimization support better blood sugar regulation and overall wellness.
Medically supervised weight loss programs to improve insulin sensitivity and support healthy metabolism.
At Patients Medical, we dig deeper to understand why your metabolism is struggling. By addressing the underlying causes, we can help prevent the onset of diabetes.
Yes. Many people are asymptomatic in the early stages, especially with prediabetes or insulin resistance.
Through A1C testing, fasting glucose, OGTT, insulin levels, and sometimes continuous glucose monitoring.
Absolutely. With the right nutrition, supplements, and lifestyle changes, prediabetes can be reversed within months.
Yes, our approach can help both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes patients by focusing on diet, stress management, and other lifestyle changes to improve insulin sensitivity and overall health.
Type 1 is an autoimmune condition where the body attacks insulin-producing cells. Type 2 is primarily due to insulin resistance, often linked to lifestyle factors, such as diet and exercise.
Many patients successfully manage their diabetes naturally with lifestyle changes, but it’s important to work with your healthcare provider to determine the best course of action for you.
We use advanced diagnostic tests such as Hemoglobin A1C, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), hormone panels, and gut health tests to understand the root causes of your condition.
While we are an out-of-network provider, we provide superbills to help with reimbursement, and certain lab tests may be partially covered by insurance.
Functional medicine focuses on identifying and treating the root causes, such as poor diet, chronic stress, hormone imbalances, and gut dysfunction, rather than just managing symptoms.
Patients Medical specializes in gently helping the patient identify the root cause of their medical issues and then assist them to recover from their problems to help them move forward to good health.
